  • Banksters are bringing the world to its knees; while they get massive bonuses. Nationalism is the only path out. What's happening now is ripping the guts out of Europe, America & Australia. The effect on people is the worse problem, as many will simply fold in he face of events they cannot influence.

  • Please see razban01 at youTube for more about layoffs and how to cope.

  • It is absolutely untrue for them to say that this wasn't foreseen.

    Of course it was. Everyone saw it coming a mile off.

    And it will happen again in 20 years, and 20 years after that...

  • OPEL messed with General Motors ...

  • I feel the pain.

    I have relatives in France and UK and this really hurts.

    There are better alternatives to layoffs!

  • Maybe it's time too move to,China or India,the Saudia Arabia,for Work...

  • why is it getting difficult..our capital is siphoned to India and there will be no money at all..you'll end up working for India on 2 euros a day and get called white trash or chaiwalla.. we can do what the nazis did...kick them out..

  • Its not the Jews..stop the blaming.

    are you aware the corporate leaders are exporting your jobs to India for increase in profits and reduced wages?? did you know that? Thats why you're out of a job or soon to be out of work!! they lie to you when they say they have no money!! very funny they say that and get millions of euros pay bonuses - money that can be used to strengthen the economy..

  • Of course Sarkotzy, the jew-will side with the banks!
